Chapter 401

“Mrs. Taylor, tell the driver outside to come in. Send her back to the family residence! From now on, she’s not

allowed to step into this house!”

“Conrad Maxwell!” Beryl screamed as she felt her blood pressure shoot up. She was almost

fainting.

However, Conrad didn’t want to look at her anymore. He walked over to Fia and picked her up.

Fia was shocked by his sudden movement and yelped as she grabbed his well-toned arm.

“Ms. Reid, do as you wish. I’m taking Fia up to have some rest.”

Eileen nodded numbly. To be honest, she was touched by what Conrad had said.

If Victor could be like Conrad… Even if only one-third of it… She was willing to be his underground

lover forever!

Beryl walked out of the mansion angrily and glared at Mrs. Taylor holding the luggage.

“Don’t think I didn’t know what you’re planning to do, Mrs. Taylor!”

Mrs. Taylor lowered her head and said nothing.

If she were to be angered, it would make her life difficult too.

“Hmph! You’ve been protecting that whore since she married into the family! Do you think I don’t know what you

want? You want to coax her so that you can have a rich life! You can forget about, it! As long as I’m alive, I’ll find a

way to make her leave my son!”

Mrs. Taylor frowned. She didn’t even want to argue with her. Beryl wouldn’t hear a word she said

anyway.

All she needed to focus on was taking care of her daily needs.

…

Conrad brought Fia up into the bedroom and put her on the bed gently.

Fia’s heart tightened as her hand that was holding his arm extended to his face.

She couldn’t understand. “She’s your mother. Why did you help me?”

He looked at her focusless eyes, and Conrad felt a tug at his heart.

“This is what husbands should do.”

He held her face up and slightly tilted it, wanting to kiss her lips.

But he was afraid that she would reject him, and so he said, “But I was too late.”

Fia felt something awakening in her heart, like rain on barren soil. She mumbled, “Are you being serious about

wanting me to be your secretary?”

Conrad gently stroked her eyebrows. “Yes.”

Private secretary… It’s a very risky position for an employer to have. After some time, they would find out a lot

about the boss’s private and work matters that had to be kept secret.

She felt that he must be joking.

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll sell your company secrets to your competitors?”

“You won’t,” Conrad said without hesitation.

“How do you know that I won’t? You and your mother did so many things to hurt me… Isn’t it normal for me to want

revenge?” Her voice trembled. She hated how he protected her.

She wished that he would treat her as he did in the past. Then, her heart wouldn’t waver.

“Fia… If taking revenge on us could make you feel better, then do it.”

Conrad held her and pressed his body on her, but he didn’t put his full weight on her.

Fia’s will was completely shaken. He was letting her have her vengeance from her perspective… Not because he

was feeling kind or generous.

Such a considerate version of him… was very enticing to her.

While she could convict him for protecting Esme, she couldn’t understand why he would do that when he was facing

Beryl.

Could it be that he really did care about her?
